Help[Opinions] Re: Keta
in reply to a message by Telfalathiel
I agree with beetoven, on Ketta. I like it. And for full names, I like Keturah, but I'm not a fan of the rest. How about Kateri?

Oooh...that's pretty. Definitely adding it to my list. I think I'm dropping Keshet and Kestrel because they have the same number of syllables as Keta/Ketta and it always bugs me when nicknames are the same length as the full name. So, now we have Keturah, Ketzi'ah and Kateri. :)
ETA: I noticed somewhere around half a dozen pronunciations. Just out of curiosity, how are you pronouncing Kateri?

I personally prefer pronouncing it "cat-er-ee" with no emphasis anywhere. I've heard pronounced like that by various priests/nuns referencing the saint. But one of my friends just got confirmed and she pronounces her saint name "ca-TARE-ee." *shrugs* I guess it's what you prefer.
